<\/p>\n<p>Maybe it&#8217;s because I&#8217;m getting older, but I&#8217;ve recently started to enjoy more downtempo sounds again, and so I decided to make this mix., which is actually the first full downtempo \/ trip-hop mix that I&#8217;ve ever recorded.<\/p>\n<p>Why did I call it &#8216;a short window to chill&#8217;? Well, basically because I actually had a very short window to make this mix! <\/p>\n<p>Every summer we take a trip to Nova Scotia, Canada for a family vacation, and this summer I decided to record this mix literally the night before we flew out &#8211; we were packing and things were chaotic, but I wanted to make the mix, so I grabbed a bunch of records, threw them on the floor, and put this together.<\/p>\n<p>White knuckle stuff!<\/p>\n<p>Overall I&#8217;m very happy with it &#8211; I think it turned out really well considering that I don&#8217;t normally DJ this style. Honestly the mixing is quite tight and the mixes work very well, with a bit of an exception later in the mix &#8211; the David Holmes remix skipped, so I had to get it back in time, and the mix into the Beastie Boys was kind of abrupt. But that&#8217;s ok! I&#8217;m happy with it; I hope you enjoy it too. <\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;re eagle eyed, you&#8217;ll notice that most of these were actually released on drum n&#8217; bass labels. Most of these are b-sides, because I don&#8217;t actually have a huge collection of downtempo stuff. Sometimes you work with what you have! <\/p>\n<p>Let me know if you liked the mix; planning to do more like it in the future.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Pearsall drops a very rare mix of old 90&#8217;s trip-hop, proper downtempo beats to relax to.
